Re: Manchester 5th April 2015 - Easter Sunday

Wow! What a shot of G-FDZY!

Is there still First Choice liveried 767's then? Not seen one yet but then I haven't done Manchester Airport yet (been from Bristol Airport years ago as a teenager in the late 90's, might have seen one then but I can't remember!)

Lovely shot's of 737-300's too, brilliant!

Kemble Airfield 04/04/15 Scraps, visits and Miles Falcon

Hello all, Was a very productive day at Kemble on the 4th. Went up to cop the UTAir 737 and the former Abu Dhabi Avro RJ's. Also had a nice visit from Miles Falcon Major G-AEEG as well :) https://farm8.staticflickr.com/7619/17019782626_9a9f3dd4e4_b.jpg Boeing 727 and 747 by underwoods_aviation_photo...

Who flies the scrappies?

One thing that I've always wondered, who actually takes the scrappies in? Lets take the Saudi 747 for example. If a pilot from the airliner took it from Saudi Arabia to Kemble, how does he/she get back, theres not a flight out of Kemble that just happens to be going that way. Does that person get a ...

Re: EI-FAU ATR

EI-DEH did this alot, never went to LHR if I was there but as my town is on one of the Aer Lingus flightpaths to Paris and Heathrow it would either pass OTT if it was cloudy or wait when I was busy (often find...

Re: EI-FAU ATR

Yes saw it on Flight Radar, it had the cheek to join the airway over Northampton, if it went over the L9 airway I would have seen it, but that would be too easy lol! Just EI-FCY to go, again another Dublin day might help, I could have had it on Thursday as it went right over Dublin from Manchester, ...

Re: Dublin Airport 05/03/15

Cheers guys :) Bat 21 - Yes, there is a mound, there are lamposts however stand in the right place next to a lampost so you are facing a gap and you'll avoid these very easily, and you are overlooking the fence, when you zoom in like the shots above, you'll avoid the fence. The top of a fence might ...

Re: EI-FAU ATR

Ahhh, unlikely to be viewable at the moment then. If it is in for maintenance then at least I'll be able to try again soon. Any info if you get any would be much appreciated :)

Thank you Bob :)

Dublin Airport 05/03/15

Hello all, For my 28th Birthday, my super present was this day trip to EIDW with Aer Lingus for a day's spotting/number crunching, which was ideal as I still needed EI-DEH, which has been tactically avoiding me! I know this is photos at Dublin, but here's a couple before we left at Bristol: https://...

Hello all, Tyically, my second to last Aer Lingus prop I need for sight is EI-FAU, and after a day at Dublin last Thursday produced no sight of it, I went on FR24 for it's flight history to see that it last flew on the 2nd March from Dublin to Southend and never did anything since.

Hello all, I've been looking online, especially on Ebay, and I cannot find any aviation beanie hats! I have one Solo Turk hat I picked up from the Turkish Air Force stand at Kleine Brogel airshow, but I'm looking for a civil version, maybe one that has a BA, EasyJet, KLM or whatever logo, or even Bo...

I've just got a copy myself!

Isn't bad, but not one I would highly rate over the originals of course, Division Bell and p.u.l.s.e is my top best albums from Pink Floyd.

Hello all, Me and a friend are off to Dublin in March on a Thursday to get some serials but hopefully some pictures too. Thing is, we are arriving from Bristol on some Aer Lingus ATR.

Very good set! Cracking shot's :)

Should give me an idea of what I might see in May, going to Brussels for the first time then, looks like there is some good vantage points.
